About this property
Charming Patio Apartment – ideally located near Arboretum, Downtown, UM Hospital
Private, lower-level apartment in charming 1920's home in Geddes Heights. 3-minute-walk to Arboretum. Less than a mile from U-M Hospital and Central Campus. About 1.5 miles to downtown and to U-M Stadium. 2 bedrooms with brand-new private bathroom.
Guests have their own separate entrance from patio into spacious, primary bedroom with comfy queen bed; love seat; built-in corner cabinets for clothes; a reading chair; and peaceful view of a lush back yard.
This primary bedroom is attached to a lovely, light-filled, secondary room with similar views. This secondary room features a twin bed; small closet; built-in drawers and cabinets; a chair and lamp for reading.
Both rooms have their own entrance to a hallway from which a small, newly-built full bathroom is accessed (walk-in shower, single sink, hairdryer provided). Shared hallway also provides access to laundry (for stays over 4 days) and stairs leading to upper, owner-occupied floors.
House is sturdily built and quiet. Apartment rooms are well-curtained for privacy.
Free street parking.
Owners are in-and-out most days, but easily contacted. Apartment is accessed via a lockbox. If you wish to be greeted by owners, please make prior arrangements with us. Otherwise, you are welcome to settle in on your own and come and go as you please.
Please Note:
- Owners very occasionally use shared hallway to do laundry and access other rooms on first floor. When guests are not on the property, owners will occasionally use the patio.
- No pets live at the residence, and no pets are allowed.
- The first floor is delightfully cool in the summer. For colder months, we have portable space heaters available so you can individually control the temperature in each bedroom.
- We have wifi, but no TV. We have a mini-fridge, coffee maker and microwave, but no kitchen.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Why they chose this property
Over twenty years ago, we spent almost a year looking for just the right home and just the right location for our family. When we saw this property for sale, we knew we had found the perfect place for our family for decades to come. A charming house, lovely neighborhood, great schools, a big yard, a stone's throw from the gorgeous Nichols Arboretum, walking distance to virtually everything!
What makes this property unique
Location, location, location! This area is so beautiful, and we love being so close to the Arboretum (we go there a lot!) and love being so close to everything.
The house itself was designed by a prominent local architect – it is so well-built and beautifully designed – it has all the charm that we were looking for.
